The Diamond Church Street Choir

And now the lights go low on the avenue

And the cars pass by in the rain

And the university boys and the girls fill the bars

While I'm just waiting on the light to change

And the steam heat pours from the bodies on the floor

Down in the basement where the jackknives play

For the hub city girls and the ribbons and their curls

Who know the meaning of stayin' out late

They know the meaning of stayin' out very, very late

Singing who does it better than we do

Them sopranos in andy diamond's choir

And wo wo wo wo nobody knows

I've been crazy for so long without you

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And I found my beat down out in the universe

Though I never forget where I'm from

I mighta moved away from home and slept out there on my own

A million miles away in a storm

But the beat never leaves and the temple's a relief

Until my aching bones rambling all over

And if I'm gone for too long

I can always hold on long

So don't you never forget what I told you

Don't you never forget what I told you

Everyone singin'

Who does it better than we do

Them sopranos in andy diamond's choir

And wo wo wo wo nobody knows

I've been crazy for so long without you

And just, baby, who sings the rhythm and the blues so sad and so slow like I do, like I do

And oh ain't it just like you want to?

And ohh ain't it just like you always wanted too

Yes, yes, yes, yes, every night waitin' so long without you

And baby, who sings it better than we do

Them sopranos in andy diamond's choir

And wo wo wo wo nobody knows ive been crazy crazy, crazy, crazy (crazy for so long without you)

Yes, baby, who sings the rhythm and the blues so sad, so slow like I do and just like you want to
